I saved this game but there is no change.
I wanted to see if I could make it a 30x25 puzzle.
To do it nicely, I need to add the lines at the top, which means the whole puzzle is scrambled.
Empty lines at the bottom?

You should be able to resize it. Did you try and have it not work?

If you change the size, then everyone who had previously solved it will see it show up as a puzzle whose solution has changed. I think if you put the empty rows at the bottom, then people who reload their old solution, instead of starting with a blank canvas, will find that their old solution pretty much works for the resized puzzle, but I'm not sure of this. Haven't tried it. Well, I just went and tried it (on the development version of the site), and it was a bit glitchy, but not too bad.

If you add the lines on the top, then people will pretty much have to resolve the puzzle entirely.

I don't know if it is actually worth the trouble just to make the puzzle size a multiple of five. But maybe it is. You'll be inconveniencing all the people who solved it in the past (though some of them will enjoy solving it again) but you'll be making it a nicer puzzle for all the people who will solve it in the future. There are probably more of the latter than the former.

Whatever you want to do, is fine with me.

Very fine puzzle I like when the final silhouette is so simple but at the same time so detail in that case you see every detail square by square I'm impress that that kind of thing I wish I was able to draw
